(More customer reviews)**Edit** Just got my Otterbox commuter (2 days early, Thanks Amazon) and unfortunately it does NOT fit in the vehicle dock. I was hoping it would be close enough so I could make some "modifications" but I don't think it's possible. There are port covers for the USB + HDMI when opened, need to flip backwards. My first idea was to cut those off but then I realized how much thicker the phone really was, The back of the phone gets double protection and sets the phone way to far forward for usb connections to line up. Even though this dock is built to accommodate the Atrix + case, I can only see ultra-thin cases working with this dock.I like this dock. It's easy to use, well designed, and adds some great new features to driving. Although I have never used a high-quality GPS unit, the Dock + Atrix gives me lots of new techy tools I'm not use to having in the car. The standard driving application (launched automatically when its docked) gives all the practical features you would ever want such as access to music, maps, GPS, hands-free calling, etc. You can even add/delete apps which is a great feature since I hate devices that add a lot of bloat I would never use anyways. If you search the App store there tons of great apps for driving as well such as tracking gas mileage, cheapest gas stations, repair costs, taking pictures/video, Pandora, and the great part about it is most of these apps are FREE...Back to the dock now. I use mine windshield mounted in my Subaru Outback and its sits at just the right height/angle. The included pieces which come with this dock have a great build quality as well. The included USB+ 3.5 audio input jack (yes the usb cable AND 3.5 audio jack are built into one cable which splits out at the end) are high quality and was long enough to route down the backside of my dashboard and wrap around to the cigarette lighter which means all I see is one cable disappear into a vent (actually a small opening between the defroster vent and the dash, and then re-appear next to the cigarette lighter. This dock also includes a very high quality cigarette lighter to DUAL USB adapter. This means you have an extra USB port for charging your ______. I normally stick to HTC products but Motorola is really pulling through. Can't wait to see what else they come out with next.
Pros:
*High Quality Build
*High Quality accessories (USB cable, 12vdc to dual USB charger)
*Easy to use
*Easy to put on and take off
Cons:
*Price. To me 39.99 sounds like the target price for this thing. $50+ is a bit steep and why it only gets 4 stars.
*Doesn't look like many cases will fit with this dock. Even though it has a removable trim piece to accommodate cases, I don't think any Otterbox product will fit on this thing as well as any other cases more than 1-2mm thick. Waiting for my Commuter case to arrive this week and I'll update if it does indeed fit.
